A new method for the determination of peroxyacetic acid (PAA) in gas phase samples is described. It is based on the oxidation of ABTS (2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonate) by PAA with formation of a radical cation which is characterized by four strong absorption maxima between 405 nm and 810 nm. These allow for sensitive spectrophotometric determination of the peracid. The selectivity of the method towards hydrogen peroxide is strongly dependent on the sampling method used. Impinger sampling and sampling based on the use of coated solid sorbents (test tubes) was performed. Limits of detection are 10–8 mol, limits of quantification are ¶5 × 10–8 mol, the linear range consists of 1.5 concentration decades in both cases. Using ABTS-coated test tubes above 1 × 10–7 mol, direct reading of the results is possible and may be used as rapid screening method for the PAA concentration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
